How the city of Brighton took care of India’s soldiers during WW1

The city of Brighton holds a unique place in the hearts of many British Indians thanks to its role during World War I. Various buildings became makeshift hospitals for Indian troops under the fog of war.

In honour of India’s great contributions to the war effort, Brighton held a wreath laying ceremony at the India Gate on October 19, which is one of many ways the city reflects upon the legacy of World War I during centenary year.
